A Successful First Transformation into a Super Saiyan, Leaving Everyone Stunned (Continued)
Feeling the North Kai's enormous aura and seeing his furious expression, Son Goku gave an awkward smile and apologized. "Wari wari, Lord Kai. I didn't mean to.
Heh heh~"
"Um, I wanted to ask you to help me figure out who this person is, the one whose power suddenly shot up."
"Lord Kai, could you take a look for me?"
As he spoke, he held the heavy object in his hands and edged closer to the North Kai.
Seeing this, the North Kai stumbled backward in alarm. "Stop, stop!"
"Stay right there!"
After seeing Son Goku stop, he gave him a resentful look.
"Don't you know how heavy the thing in your hands is?"
"What if you lose your grip and drop it on me? Are you trying to crush me to death?"
He really liked Son Goku as a person because his heart was pure.
But he didn't like his loud, impulsive nature.
Most of the time, he never considered the consequences of what he did.
He only focused on how to solve whatever difficult problem was right in front of him.
That was how he'd ended up with the halo over his head.
"Sorry, sorry!" Son Goku apologized twice without thinking. The next moment, he said with a completely serious expression, "But Lord Kai, you're already dead. Even if it hit you, it wouldn't really matter, would it..."
Even the mild-tempered North Kai was about ready to explode at that.
"Goku!!!"
What kind of thing was that to say?!
Did that little brat have any idea how I died?!!!
You're going to be the death of me!
Seeing the North Kai fly into a rage, his mouth gaping wide, Son Goku belatedly realized his mistake and hurried to apologize. "Sorry, sorry!"
"Lord Kai, I'll find a time to have the Dragon God bring you all back to life."
"For now, could you please check whether the person behind this energy is a Saiyan?"
"I feel like this energy is very similar to a Saiyan's, but it's also unfamiliar."
When Son Goku said he'd bring them back to life, the North Kai's anger instantly faded.
But the very next moment, he spoke in a gloomy, aggrieved voice. "I've heard you say that several times already!"
"But even now, the halo over my head is still there!"
"Have you actually taken this to heart at all, you brat?"
"Honestly!"
"I'll definitely do it next time, I promise! Heh heh~" Son Goku cheerfully assured him.
The North Kai really had no way to deal with Son Goku. But what could he do? Son Goku was his most prized student.
A student of his own—he had to face the consequences, even with tears in his eyes!
Although he didn't quite believe Son Goku would remember, he still muttered, "Remember what you just said!"
Then he calmed himself and searched for the Saiyan energy Son Goku had mentioned.
The two long, slender antennae on his head quivered a couple of times, and he had his answer.
Then he gave Son Goku an inquisitive look.
"Goku, over a month ago, didn't you sense four unfamiliar energies appearing on Earth?"
Son Goku blinked and thought back, but couldn't recall anything.
"I didn't sense them!"
"Maybe... I was too focused on training at the time?"
The North Kai was at a loss for words. That was just how the little rascal was: once he started training, he shut out everything around him.
"Your instincts were right. The person whose energy is surging really is a Saiyan."
"Moreover, he's one of the four people who suddenly arrived on Earth over a month ago."
Hearing that it really was a Saiyan, Son Goku's face lit up with delight. "It really is a Saiyan?"
"But I thought Vegeta said that he and I were the only pure-blooded Saiyans left in the world."
"Was Vegeta lying to me?"
"Never mind, that doesn't matter!"
"If he's a Saiyan too, he must be pretty strong, right?"
"I'd love to fight him sometime!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly widened, surprise and excitement showing on his face.
"Lord Kai, has this Saiyan turned into a Super Saiyan?"
Seeing how excited he was, the North Kai was already used to it.
"That's right. He's in Super Saiyan form now."
"So I was right!" Son Goku's eyes lit up. "Lord Kai, you said he arrived on Earth over a month ago."
"That means he managed to become a Super Saiyan in just over a month?"
"That's amazing!"
"He's trained even faster than Gohan!"
"It's just a shame he's only just learned to transform into a Super Saiyan."
"Otherwise, I'd go back and spar with him right now!"
The North Kai was once again speechless, and a little disappointed.
Saiyans really were battle maniacs!
He'd thought Son Goku would head back as soon as he found out.
That would at least slow down the rate at which his wallet was shrinking.
With Son Goku training here, he was close to being eaten out of house and home!
After composing himself, he spoke slowly. "Goku, those two Saiyans are indeed on Earth right now."
"Vegeta knows them, too."
"Huh, Vegeta knows them?" Son Goku was astonished, then complained, "That guy Vegeta actually lied to me!"
The North Kai nodded slightly. "That's right!"
"Not only does Vegeta know them, but one of those Saiyans is his own younger brother!"
As soon as he said that, Son Goku's eyes widened and he cried out.
"Vegeta has a younger brother?!!!"
Earth.
Kami's Lookout.
Vegeta watched Tarble, his body surrounded by golden energy, and clapped his hands in delight.
Clap, clap, clap!
He was just about to speak when he suddenly sneezed.
"Achoo!"
The sudden sneeze left him confused.
What was that?
Had I caught a cold?
That couldn't be!
But he only paused for a moment before putting it out of his mind.
Nothing mattered more right now than Tarble effortlessly succeeding in becoming a Super Saiyan.
"Tarble, congratulations on becoming a Super Saiyan!"
"Your talent really is even greater than I imagined."
"Excellent!"
For once, a sincere smile appeared on his usually cold face.
At last, a Royal Saiyan warrior had a chance to surpass ordinary Saiyans!
Just you wait, Kakarot!
I might not be able to surpass you, but my younger brother, Tarble, definitely can!
No doubt about it!
As soon as he finished speaking, Trunks was delighted too. "Uncle Tarble, you're amazing!"
"You succeeded on your very first try, just like Goten and me!"
"Dad used to tell me that turning into a Super Saiyan was really difficult."
The first two sentences were fine.
But at the last one, the delighted smile on Vegeta's face vanished in an instant.
He was about to open his mouth and scold Trunks, saying there was no reason for him to lie.
But when he remembered that Tarble had succeeded on his first try, he swallowed the words.
Let him misunderstand, then!
I can't be bothered to explain.
Rix is going to try next. Then we'll see whether it's really that difficult.
Vegeta didn't believe Rix was such a genius, too.
